If you're interested in an air fryer but don't have room for another dedicated appliance, you might be considering a toaster oven-style air fryer. These toaster ovens feature an air fry function, letting you make crispy snacks and golden-brown toast in the same appliance. When you're looking for the best option for you, consider how quickly and evenly it air fries and toasts, and whether it offers much versatility beyond those functions. A versatile air fryer maintains a stable temperature throughout cooking and provides a wide range of temperature and fan speed settings; the low end lets you dehydrate, proof dough, and bake, while the high end is useful for roasting and air frying, as the high settings help brown food quickly.
Keep in mind, however, that most air fryer toaster ovens cook more slowly and less evenly than basket-style models and offer similar trade-offs for toasting. The best air fryer toaster ovens air fry and toast nearly as quickly and evenly as their single-function counterparts, while offering enough versatility to make the compromise worth it to you and enough space for the recipes you intend to cook.
We've tested more than 25 toaster ovens, and below are our recommendations for the best air fryer toaster ovens. If you're also considering separate appliances, see the best basket-style air fryers and the best toaster ovens.

Best Air Fryer Toaster Oven
Air Frying7.6Mixed Usage7.5Cooking Capacity8.7Crispy Fries78.0%See all our test resultsTime To Reach 45% Moisture Loss22:44The best air fryer toaster oven combo we've tested is the Breville the Smart Oven Air Fryer Pro, and it claims the top spot thanks to its fast, even air frying, excellent versatility, and large cooking chamber. This large-capacity toaster oven can accommodate nine slices of bread, a 13-inch pizza, or a 9" x 13" baking pan, and has four rack positions, making it suitable if you often prepare big breakfasts or large batches and full meals, like a casserole or a whole air-fried chicken. It provides a good air-frying performance, producing mostly crispy, evenly cooked food, making it a good choice if you air fry a lot. You can also use it for other cooking methods, such as baking or dehydrating, thanks to its decent temperature stability and wide temperature and fan speed ranges. The downside of this model is that it's not the best choice for toasting bread. While it can fit nine slices, it makes the most even toast with just four slices in the chamber and works very slowly.
As a larger oven, it also preheats slowly, so you'll have to wait some time before you start cooking. Luckily, it has a preheat reminder, so you can multitask while it heats up. You'll also want to make sure you have space for this model, since it's quite large. On the bright side, it's easy to clean the spacious cooking chamber, which has a non-stick coating.

Best Upper Mid-Range Air Fryer Toaster Oven
Air Frying7.4Mixed Usage8.0Cooking Capacity8.7Crispy Fries75.0%See all our test resultsTime To Reach 45% Moisture Loss25:57If you want an air fryer toaster oven that air fries evenly while offering excellent performance for baking and toasting, consider the Ninja Foodi DT201, our best pick at an upper mid-range price. Like the Breville the Smart Oven Air Fryer Pro, this model has a large cooking chamber with room for a 9" x 13" baking pan and four possible rack positions, so it has plenty of space for making large portions or family-sized meals. It air fries very evenly, making crispy, evenly-browned food, but its speed is disappointing. While this is definitely something to consider, it'll be worth it if you're willing to wait for better-quality food. It's also an excellent choice for toast, since it browns bread very evenly, but in a similar trade-off, it takes a while to produce golden brown toast. Thanks to its excellent temperature stability, it's a good choice for bakers, too. The even, uniform temperature throughout the cooking chamber helps ensure your cookies and cakes cook through without drying out or burning.
This toaster oven-style air fryer is very versatile as well, with a wide range of temperature settings and fan speeds. You can broil with the fan off, bake or dehydrate at a low fan speed, or cook a pizza at a high fan speed. Unlike our top pick, its interior doesn't have a non-stick coating, but its size makes it easy to reach into, so it's still easy to clean.

Best Mid-Range Air Fryer Toaster Oven
Air Frying7.6Mixed Usage8.2Cooking Capacity8.5Crispy Fries73.0%See all our test resultsTime To Reach 45% Moisture Loss20:05The Typhur Sync Oven is worth considering for people who want intuitive high-tech features and guided cooking assistance. It comes with a wireless thermometer so you can easily ensure meat cooks to a safe temperature without drying out your dinner, and it offers access to a companion app with an AI recipe feature. You can take a photo of your ingredients for recipe suggestions, then specify how many portions and exactly how you'd like your meal cooked. This model air fries almost as evenly as the Ninja Foodi DT201, but faster, so you don't have as long for crispy, golden-brown meals and snacks. Like the Breville the Smart Oven Air Fryer Pro, however, this model's biggest trade-off is its toasting performance. It evenly toasts the surface of each slice, and its toasting speed is acceptable, but it leaves one side much darker than the other.
Like the previous picks, this toaster oven has a large capacity, with enough space for a 13-inch pizza, and while it doesn't quite fit nine slices of bread, there's plenty of room for six slices. The roomy interior also makes it a breeze to clean, since it's easy to reach inside. With its wide range of settings and excellent temperature stability, this model is a versatile option for baking, dehydrating, and reheating leftovers, which is handy if you plan to make a variety of recipes in your oven-style air fryer.

Best Budget Air Fryer Toaster Oven
Air Frying7.7Mixed Usage7.0Cooking Capacity7.1Crispy Fries70.0%See all our test resultsTime To Reach 45% Moisture Loss16:59The best toaster oven air fryer combo we've tested at a budget-friendly price is the Cuisinart Air Fryer TOA-70; it's not as spacious or versatile as the picks above, but it offers the best air frying performance of the bunch, thanks to its even cooking and, especially, its fast cooking speed. This air-frying performance makes it a good choice for anyone who doesn't want to compromise on crispy meals or a budget-friendly price. Of course, at this price, there are a number of trade-offs, but the biggest for this model is temperature stability. It tends to fluctuate from the set temperature, overshooting it fairly often, which can cause baked goods and leftovers to dry out or burn before they're cooked.
While it isn't as versatile as the pricier options above, this toaster oven still offers a range of functions, like 'Broil,' 'Warm,' and 'Grill,' which only heat foods like burgers, salmon, and asparagus from the bottom. It's also a decent option for toasting. The smaller cooking chamber helps it toast faster than the larger options above, including the Typhur Sync Oven, though it toasts most evenly with just four slices at a time. The smaller size contributes to its excellent preheat speed, too, though it's a bit harder to reach into the chamber when it's time to clean your toaster oven.

Best Cheap Air Fryer Toaster Oven
Air Frying7.5Mixed Usage8.0Cooking Capacity7.2Crispy Fries68.9%See all our test resultsTime To Reach 45% Moisture Loss18:57If you're looking for a compact air fryer at a low price, consider the Ninja Flip SP151, which is often on sale for around $150 USD. This short, wide toaster oven has a space-saving trick: you can flip the oven backward when not in use, allowing you to store it out of the way and giving it a much smaller countertop footprint. The cooking chamber doesn't have much vertical space, so it may not fit a cake or a loaf of bread, but its mesh air fry basket is about the same size as the Cuisinart Air Fryer TOA-70's, giving you ample space to spread your food out in a single layer for better results. It air fries a little less evenly, but it still produces mostly crispy Brussels sprouts or chicken wings, delivering decent results in a relatively short time, which is impressive at this price point.
It also offers a good multi-purpose performance. It maintains a stable temperature during cooking, ensuring consistent results when baking or reheating leftovers. Whether you're baking cookies or just reheating a slice of pizza, the stable temperature helps prevent your food from burning. You can use it to toast six slices of bread more quickly than the Cuisinart Air Fryer TOA-70, making it a good option for brunch or a large family breakfast when you need a lot of toast in a hurry. However, the cooking chamber's smaller dimensions make it more difficult to clean by hand than the other options here, especially since it doesn't have a non-stick coating.
